Cepea reported that the sharp dollar rally in late October revived interest in exports of paddy rice in Rio Grande do Sul. Some sellers are delaying deals while industry keeps purchases limited, and planting is advancing.
Prices edged up at the end of October, with the Cepea/Irga indicator at its highest nominal monthly average since February 2025.
Expected export demand and a stronger dollar support Brazilian paddy prices, but weak sales by processors cap the rally. Feed buyers should watch the domestic rice balance for any effect on rice by-products.
